it isnt finished yet but my 9 yr old wanted me to post what he has done so far 
many thanks to 3V0 who has been teaching us C ! and thats no easy task as the project gets finished we will post all the details and some pictures. basicaly what we have done is mount 30 bicolour LEDs onto a CD then charlieplexed them to a pic 18f4685, actualy it looks alot cooler than it sounds and he is only nine!! 3v0 helped explain how functions work and arrays, the code is a long long way from finished but my boy is in a hurry to see what people think so far so i have posted it,
he has had limited help from me and considering he has only been attempting to program for a week or so i think he has done really well.
unfortunately it dosnt look as neat on here as it does in mplab lol he has spent alot of time with the comments
